Is this a speck of dust in the crystal?

I think you should definitely send it in to be removed, whatever it is.

When I bought this watch online, it arrived with a speck on the underside of the crystal.

I tried to return it for another, but the seller said that was his last one, so because liked the watch so much otherwise, I just sat on it for awhile and one day took in to local watchmaker who removed the speck free of charge.

I can deal with a lot of wear and tear on my watches, but anything having to do with the crystal annoys me to no end.

Sounds like a good plan, thanks!

Did you send it back in or just get it removed?

Agreed, I'm rocking a few nice scratches already NBD.
